... Arabian side (he said the Kingdom of Saba stretched on both sides of the Red Sea). Mrs Kluitman points out that, therefore, "the Queen of Saba, or Sheba, came on camels through the Arabian part of her own kingdom towards Jerusalem, and this explains why they saw in her an ARABIAN princess." Abandoned Megaliths source: THE SCOTSMAN 2.7 .85 Archaeologists excavating two stone circles dated to 2000 BC at Machrie Moor on Arran have discovered that they were set in a fertile field being used for agriculture. The site was abandoned in the Neolithic period and became covered in peat, which has preserved the Neolithic landscape complete with ploughmarks and wooden ...

... via associated charcoal to 10,000 years ago, 2,000 years older than previous finds in the Americas. This is at least 5,000 years before the Mayan culture in the region began building monuments. Early and Late (Current World Archaeology, No. 7, September/October 2004, p. 17) The earliest megalithic temple buildings in Malta have been dated to 3600 BC, which makes them the earliest stone buildings in the world. Yet the earliest occupation evidence is dated at 5000 BC, which is very late compared to other areas in Europe. Is it possible that an earlier occupation was wiped out at the end of the ice age, when ...
223. Introducing Anomalistics: A New Field of Interdisciplinary Study [Journals] [Kronos]
... (as applied to particular taxa), extinction is not merely unexplained but paradoxical, since some groups- of which the best known are the saurischia, or large dinosaurs- seem not merely to have survived but to have flourished immediately before their geologically sudden disappearance.(4 ) A good example of a social science anomaly is the archaic megalithic complex, of which the best known specimen is probably the great stone circle at Stonehenge in Wiltshire, England. In an apparent effort to contain (since they cannot eliminate) the strangeness of this complex, in which both the methods and the motives of construction remain obscure, archeologists have written about it as though it were confined to ...

225. Late Pleistocene Extinctions: No Evidence for Plato's Atlantis [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... and to the Phoenicians from possibly even earlier: it seems they built their base of Cadiz adjacent to Tartessos territory [11,12]. However, there is little evidence of a Tartessos civilisation, no city having yet been located. As to the earlier history of the Iberian peninsula, there is carbon-14 and thermoluminescence evidence that the first megalithic culture of Europe arose there some 6,500 years ago [13]. This was initially based purely on stone tools, although later copper was used, and then bronze. Farming developed in Iberia about 8,000 years ago [13], but this is still some time short of the date of Plato's Atlantis. Many ...

... material pressing for inclusion in our columns we cannot justify duplication of work published elsewhere. (So that readers may know the context: the wording to which Cardona objects reads: "The Forum' section includes letters from Dr Euan MacKie and the editors of SISR correcting the impression given by Dwardu Cardona in an earlier Kronos that MacKie's work on megalithic observatories was an attempt to disprove' Velikovsky's theories; these are followed by ripostes from Cardona and McCreery." This was in line with our earlier note (in "Horizons" of SISR IV:2 /3 ) regarding Cardona's paper in KRONOS IV:3 , a discussion of two megalithic sites (Kintraw and Ballochroy) examined ...

... by its gravitational pull, the moon held, day and night, the water of the ocean at the altitude of Tiahuanacu: The level of the ocean must have been at least 13,000 feet higher. ' (35) Then the Moon crashed into the earth and the oceans receded to the poles, leaving the island with its megalithic city as a mountain above the sea bottom, now the continent of the tropical and subtropical Americas. All this happened millions of years before our moon was caught by the earth, and thus the ruins of the megalithic city Tiahuanacu are millions of years old, that is, the city must have been built long before the Flood. ...
... Ammon. All that has been said previously in regard to the trend of civilization as having emanated from the British Isles points accordingly to Egypt's true source of parentage. Although the importance of Thoth is manifest in Egypt's civilization from the first, it is of significance that there is no trace of the worship of Saturn. Egypt possesses no unhewn megaliths on which no tool may be laid, no monstrous primeval stone idols like these of Cornwall, no Cyclopean buildings, no round temples, and no cromlechs. Yet, as we have seen, such relics survive in India, the Pacific, in Peru, and even as far north as on the Yenesei river in Siberia. As ...
